Today while I was driving, the right passenger door opened itself.
WTF!!!
Scary shit man!
Luckily not midnight. If not I sure posting this on a hospital bed already.

Still very happy with SV though.

Yesterday tried to go full pedal to the metal and love the performance of the car.

I would suggest that you add some engine oil additives like the Ceratec, and maybe the NanoTech powder thing (I haven't tried this one), and maybe change to some oil that allows for smooth revving. Maybe change the ATF (if you're driving an Auto) too to some premium fluid. I think you will like it even better. Everything feels very smooth now especially when it's accelerating. The loudness is still there though from revving over 4K RPM, but much more reduced compared to last time.

i think this is very wrong for replying after so.............long.
hmm, the previous fc yes, i am very very very super light foot because very scared of the damage i cause if i heavy foot.
but my trip is much lesser now. I do feel the car not getting the low end torque in 4th gear like it have last time.
but otherwise is still good. which means my city driving actually not that affected. just that I am a frequent highway.
now I had to dump my persona at home. Satu minggu jalan dua hari coz I dun have additional budget to spend on to repair the car or to change car now.
Thx god I am blessed, I am given a toyota to drive now. So this solve a lot of my problem.
Btw, you may look at my fc figures, its not that badly damaged I assume. maybe just a bit.
Thanks for telling me about it if not I think I will still be driving with it and damaging my gearbox further.
I am changing my oil again soon even though it only run less than 10k km. I will see if there is any abnormal color or sludge by then.

Hi Bro ,

Here how it happen on my Day 3 persona SV.
I was parking at the road side n getting off my car for a quick smoke . The weather at the moment is raining .

I notice there was mist( water leak in) caught inside my headlamp ( passenger side) , the other one is ok (driver side).
So damn first of thought , this is abnormal for a new car man.if it is normal , it should be happen on both of the headlight under same condition , environment . Right ?!
At the moment , I not yet turn on the light yet.( late evening)

The mist gone while I finally reach home , light on for 2 hours under small rain during night time while driven home.

This really piss me off . Shock me n drain my new car mood sad.gif

Mind to share if any of you have this experience on yr persona previously ??
Pls guide me how to make a complain to which branch SC(KL area) to get this problem solved.

Other minor problem detected ,
- Stock viper didn't vipe evenly ( not expecting much )
- dusty stock brake pad, noisy brake sound at low speed.
-light vibrating during low speed
- typical heavy car handle , and door hardly closed when push.
- some noise on the radio transmit( hopefully , not antenna wiring problem)

Quite hard to proof unless it happen when you spray some water on it.
Just give them a call and ask for advice.
Other minor thing are just normal. Either change the part (wiper, brake pads) or live with it.

You still suggest ppl to add 3rd party addictives to engine oil kah? If addictives is powder based, even worse, coz that means solvent or not, the powder might form sludge later on. Although I heard ceratec works, its long term effect on engine is still unknown. I would rather the owner change to a better quality engine oil rather than add any 3rd party addictives.

Ask for advise. Light vibrating? How? Where? Whole car?
Ask any SC to readjust the door.

Go to Proton's Centre of Excellence to make all the claims. I believe they should honor all the claims above since your car is still new. If not maybe make noise on Proton's facebook page like some guy in this forum until they decide to help you.

You mean you still considering an addictive that are already proven to cause sludge. Although the turbo runs at higher temp, it is not very much higher than our high speed ride as the temp generated is still a daily non racing engine temp. A good engine semi can withstand that temp without sludging but this addictive cannot, still want to trust it?

Can any owner check where this 2nd clear tube outlet from the radiator water reserve container goes to? Is it going directly out to the ground floor as nothing is connected at the end of the clear tube? Found the clear tube end facing towards the metal comp of the car after car repair. Adjusted the tube to face directly down towards the ground if waters comes out of it. Is it correct?

Found this blue round thingy with lots of wiring going thru besides the fuse box exposed like that, the wiring going in is not wrap or seal, is that normal?
